https://www.rockypointtalk.com/threads/home-builder.15896/invalid@example.com (tndr_cpl)tndr_cplWe are looking hard at moving to Rocky Point. We have been coming down since 1980 (yes, for real!). We don't have specific plans and are looking at a number of possible options in terms of location (we are leaning toward Playa Encanto, but are open) and whether to buy or build. I have read through all the previous posts but I know things change, so ...does anyone have current recommendations for a builder? Thanks in advance for your thoughts.]]>10Encantame Towers, Playa EncantoSun, 02 Dec 2018 05:02:27 +0000https://www.rockypointtalk.com/threads/encantame-towers-playa-encanto.17699/

I ran across a recent press release from a company named Alumifuel Power Corporation (OTC MARKETS: AFPW) to the effect that the company had announced on July 31, 2018 that it appointed Pedro Villagran-Garcia, as its new President-CEO and sole Director. Once that was done, the company signed a letter of intent with Pedro Villagran Ochoa, Chairman of the Board of Bahia Finisterra, S.A. de C.V.

Real world comparison:
Friends bought condos for around 200k in Seattle and RP area in 2012.The Seattle one sold today for $435,000.The Mexico one is close to selling too...for $250k....

we went in on a Idaho ski area 1200sq ft. Cottage...$170000 ...it just sold for $350. My friends 1200sq ft home in Santo Tomas price just dropped to 100k

There may be some small errors in interpretation but I believe, through personal experience, it is accurate and useful.

When people in the business say they have rectified titles to enable the sale of a property but there was nothing wrong with them it's absurd. Look up the meaning of rectified.

We finally decided to purchase a condo on Sandy Beach. We will use it for our family trips to Penasco (about 3-4 times a year) and the rest of the time we will have it in a rental pool. We are looking at 1bd or 2bd, if 1bd then we would use a sofa or murphy bed. We are a family of 5 (2-adults, 3-kids ages 9-17)

My wife and I were down there August of last year and really enjoyed it (I've lived in Houston before, not phased by triple digit heat and humidity). For years I had wanted to look at retiring to the Virgin Islands. PP got me considering something else......Hurricane Irma finished the job.

We stayed at a condo at Esmerelda. It was nice and all, but the whole resort thing wasn't our scene. While we were there I drove around and looked at some town homes on the beach in the El...
